Abstract
A harmonic drive gear reduction mechanism includes a rigid inner spline with 2(n+1) teeth and a tooth module of m, a flexible outer spline inserted in the rigid inner spline has 2n teeth and a tooth module of m, a flexible bearing inserted in the flexible outer spline, and a wave generator inserted in the flexible bearing. A thickness between an inner diameter of the flexible bearing and a pitch diameter of the flexible outer spline is t, a cross sectional profile of the wave generator consists four curves, the first and third curves have a radius of curvature R, R=m (n+1)−t, a central angle of the first and third curves is k, and 10<k≦60, the second and fourth curves and conjunction points between the second, fourth curves and the first, third curves can be first-order differentiated.
